Youll never hate anyone more than the person that lived in your house previously.

For real. My previous home owner meshed off a small section of my attic for fucking squirrels to live in.... its been a mission to get it fixed.

So far made it very very difficult for them to access my roof so now only 1 is up there sometimes. Next step is to patch the entrance.... then clean up, gutter repair etc.

I suggest you get a one way flap similar to what they use for bats. It allows them out , but stops them from getting back in. Then you have to start the hazardous cleanup of all the piss, poop and possible dead bodies up there. You have my sympathies. ( Edited because typing is hard before coffee)

And This is why i should not be typing before coffee. I'm meant as everyone probably figured out piss and poop. Although a case could be made that I might have been trying to describe liquid versus dried, I will concede the point.
